Chapter 42 The Truth Behind Tony's Parents' Deaths?
Bang!
"Fuck you!"
Obadiah's words infuriated Tony.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Tony punched him hard in the head.
And it's unclear whether Tony threw that punch intentionally or deliberately.
It hit Obadiah squarely on the head where there was no scalp, and it almost made him groan in pain!
He rolled on the ground, clutching his bleeding head!
It's no wonder Tony was so angry.
After all, although these weapons were sold by Obadiah, they were genuinely printed with his name, Stark!
Obadiah's actions not only violated Stark Industries' principle of not selling weapons to terrorists, but also indirectly created countless enemies for Tony!
For example, there's a little witch in Sokovia, and her incredibly fast brother~
Having learned that he had taken the blame for so much, Tony no longer felt that Toby's methods of torturing Obadiah were cruel.
They're even planning to reissue it!
Although Tony can't grow barbs on his hands like Toby, he has a more scientific way of torturing people.
Tony strode into the kitchen and grabbed a handful of coarse salt.
He then returned to the living room, bent down and pressed a handful of coarse salt onto Obadiah's head, spreading the salt evenly over the area where Obadiah had no scalp!
"Ughhhhhhh!!!"
Hearing Obadiah let out screams no less agonizing than when Toby had just tortured him, even the creator of this story couldn't help but give Tony a thumbs up.
What a salt tycoon who puts his knowledge to practical use!
As Obadiah thrashed about on the floor like a fish in boiling water, Tony pressed his head down firmly, gritting his teeth as he said:
"Where's the list? Tell me where the list is! Hand over all the lists of your previous secret deals!"
Under the ruthless hand of Tony, the Salt King, Obadiah dared not be defiant.
He quickly told Tony the password to the trading list he had at home, as well as the password to the computer where the trading list was stored.
After Tony made a note of it, he shoved his head away roughly, took out a handkerchief to wipe the salt and blood from his hands, and said coldly:
"Now for the second question: is your involvement in my parents' deaths? I was attacked by the Ten Commandments gang on your orders this time, so my parents didn't just die in a car accident back then, did they?"
"You leaked my father's safety route and sent people to attack him, am I right!"
Tony's statement is more of a statement than a question.
After all, knowing that there was such a deeply hidden high-ranking traitor as Obadiah within Stark, how could he not understand this?
The main reason he wanted Toby to bring the baby back alive was that he wanted to confront Obadiah about this issue.
Now Obadiah just wanted to get rid of his tormented scalp as soon as possible, so he stopped being stubborn and directly admitted:
"That's right, it was me... I'm the one who leaked your father's route. Who told him to set that rule of never selling Stark weapons to terrorists, blocking Stark Industries' path to wealth..."
"His death will only benefit Stark Industries, not harm it..."
Tony, hearing Obadiah's admission, couldn't help but get excited, even though he had some suspicions. He grabbed Obadiah by the collar and lifted him up, raising his voice:
"Who was it? Whom did you commission to kill my mother and my father? Tell me!"
Unexpectedly, Obadiah shook his head: "If I knew, I would definitely tell you, but unfortunately, I don't know the other party's identity..."
"And it wasn't me who found him, but him who came to me. I think he must be one of your father's other enemies..."
Upon hearing this, Tony was somewhat taken aback, because he could tell that Obadiah was not lying.
Similarly, in this certain-death situation, Obadiah had no need to lie...
Now, although Obadiah has admitted to betraying his father's plans, he still doesn't know who really killed his father.
Doesn't this mean he has no hope of avenging his parents?
Tony, still somewhat unwilling, finally asked, "So, you must remember what kind of characteristics that person who contacted you had, right?!"
Obadiah finally nodded this time:
"I do remember...because he was special..."
"Although he deliberately covered the lower half of his face when he came to me for Howard's safety route, as a mechanical expert, I still noticed something strange about his left hand—it was some kind of high-tech mechanical arm..."
"The left hand is a mechanical arm?" Tony's brows relaxed considerably upon hearing this.
Although this clue is not much, it is extremely important, as it can help him eliminate most of the people.
After all, there aren't many people in the world with mechanical arms, and even fewer who can use them in combat.
And since that person is an assassin, the scope becomes even smaller!
Wait, an assassin?!
Tony suddenly looked at Toby, who had already lain down on the sofa and seemed to be asleep, rushed over to him, shook his shoulders excitedly, and asked:
"Wake up, Toby, wake up! I have an important question to ask you!"
Tony and Ethan got a good rest during their trip, but Toby, who had been driving for several days in a row, didn't get any rest at all.
Now that he can finally get a little nap, Tony disturbs him. How can Toby tolerate this?
He slapped Tony's hand away as he shook him, turned over, and went back to sleep.
"Do you really think I'm Doraemon? One minute you're rescuing people, the next you're kidnapping them, then you're interrogating them, and now you want to ask questions? Go ask your bald head yourself..."
Tony shook his hand, which was bruised and sore from the slap, and looked at Toby, who was lying there like a dead pig. Helpless, he had no choice but to use his ultimate move.
He gathered his strength and snapped his fingers in a classic gesture: "Jarvis, now transfer a billion dollars, principal and interest, to Toby Parker's hidden account!"
[Understood. One billion has been deducted from the interest on your investment and transferred to Mr. Toby Parker's account.]
At the same time, Toby's phone rang.
"Ding~ $1000000000 USD has been deposited into your bank account..."
The next second after the sound appeared, Tony felt a blur before his eyes, and when he could see clearly again, he found Toby sitting upright on the sofa with a serious expression.
Toby, no longer sleepy, looked refreshed and gestured to Tony, "Mr. Stark, please ask me your question. I am Doraemon himself now, and I can answer any question you may have!"
"Heh, so damn true!" Tony looked at the serious-looking Toby and gave a cold laugh with dead fish eyes.
